Solar Cost

Good post on Solar and doing the analysis on cost - And the comments are even better!

Lots of debate about how cost efficient Solar is, what the payback period is, maintenance, subsidiaries, and will the amount of energy produced equal the amount of energy needed to produce the solar cell in the first place.

The majority view seems to wait and within 5-7 years you will see major changes. LED lights will come down in price, plug-in hybrid, solar efficiency will increase, and the cost for solar will decrease. Nano is mentioned in the area of cost savings.
